Replacing a catamaran that has come to be seen as a benchmark is no easy task. But the VPLP architects, in partnership with Lagoon and the celebrated Nauta Design studio, have been brilliantly successful in creating the Lagoon 450.

Lagoon expertise- infusion-moulding: weight saving (important for a catamaran), best possible structure, protection for the environment and shipyard workers- interior joinery in Alpi® reconstituted wood in the interests of sustainable development (choice of finishes: light oak or teak)- vertical glazing for better protection against the sun, optimisation of space and headroom- gull-wing bridge deck for greater comfort in heavy seas- VPLP design: a guarantee of performance under sail!- and the Nauta Design touch for elegance and comfort

Above decks- the cabin-top design creates a more elegant and punchier roof outline- a large sunbathing area on the cabintopthe sail areas are the same with the FlyBridge version. However, the lower mast and boom: - reduces pitching - makes the boom easier to accessthe cabintop bulkhead fitted steering position fitted on the cabin-top aft bulkhead includes the following: - all maneuvers - integrated large helm station seat - access from the cockpit and the deck - an optional extra safety system is also offered, with a tilting composite beam (optional) to close off the steering station in bad weather - a composite bimini above steering area is available as an option

Below decks- interior design by Nauta: elegance and functionality- saloon and cabins exceptionally well lit- natural light in cabins thanks to large glazed panels on hulls- truly luxurious owner's cabin- comfortable guest cabins with a side access to the double bed- "U"-shaped galley for greater comfort at sea, equipped with large hot plates, broad work space and plenty of storage- optimization of the access between the cockpit and the galley- engine compartments remote from the living areas and perfectly insulated
